Large Vibratory Sieve

• Separating dry bulk materials by particle size in food processing.
• Grading aggregates and powders in chemical and pharmaceutical industries.
• Removing oversized contaminants from granular products in agriculture.
• Dewatering slurries and separating solids from liquids in various industrial processes.

Typical capacity

For this class of large vibratory sieve, throughput can typically range from several hundred kilograms to several tonnes per hour, depending on material density and mesh size.

Power supply

Units of this type commonly require a 3-phase electrical supply, typically 400V, 50Hz, with motor power varying based on sieve diameter and vibration intensity.

Screen diameter

Large vibratory sieves typically feature screen diameters ranging from 900mm to over 1800mm, influencing the available screening area.

Number of decks

This unit is described with two screens, indicating a two-deck configuration, which allows for three distinct product fractions.

Construction material

Commonly, contact parts are made from stainless steel (e.g., 304 or 316) for hygiene and corrosion resistance, especially in food and pharmaceutical applications, with mild steel for the frame.

Vibration mechanism

Typically employs an eccentric weight motor system to generate multi-plane vibration, facilitating material flow and separation.

Suitable feed sizes

Can process a wide range of feed sizes, from fine powders (microns) to coarse granules (several millimetres), depending on the installed mesh sizes.

• What types of materials can this sieve process?

  A large vibratory sieve is versatile and can process a wide array of dry bulk materials, including powders, granules, and aggregates, as well as some slurries for solid-liquid separation.

• How do I change the screens?

• What maintenance is typically required for a vibratory sieve?

• Can this unit be used for wet applications?

• What safety features should I look for?

Sorting and grading equipment is valued for improving product consistency and processing efficiency. Buyers typically seek machines in good mechanical condition with minimal wear on critical components like belts, motors and calibration systems. Common strengths include reliable performance when properly maintained, cost savings versus new equipment, and compatibility with existing production lines. Industry sentiment favours models from established manufacturers known for durability. Buyers should inspect electrical systems thoroughly and verify spare parts availability before purchasing used units.
